SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 682,276, dated September 10, 1901.

Application iilecl May 4, 1901. Serial No. 58,738. (No model.)

T a/ZZ whom tino/,y concern:

Be it known that I, FREEB'ORN F. RAY- MOND, 2d, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Newton, in the county of Middlesex and State of Massachusetts, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Paste Pots or Jars, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawings,

1o forming a part of this specification, in explaining its nature.

The invention relates to a paste pot or jar comprising two independent receptacles, one of which is adapted to hold water and the I5 other of which to hold paste. The outer receptacle is preferably cylindrical in shape and also preferably has a cylindrical chamber formed by the inner and outer walls of the receptacle, which are connected together 2o at the base of the receptacle and the inner wall of which forms a chamber which is open at the top and at the bottom and which is adapted to receive and hold an independent and removable receptacle. When the chamz 5 ber of the outer receptacle is used for holding water, it provides, in effect, an evaporating-chamber and also a cylindrical brush well or holder, any part of which may be used for holding the brush.

3o In the further description of the invention reference will be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specication, in which-` Figure 1 is a view in vertical central section of a pot or jar without the cover and without the inner receptacle. Fig. 2 is a View of theinner receptacle filled and covered. Fig. 3 is a view representing the outer and inner receptacles associated and covered, the

4o outer receptacle containing water and the inner receptacle paste, a brush being shown in the outer receptacle. Fig. 4: is a View in vertical section representing a modification in the use of the two chambers, to which ref-` erence is hereinafter made.

Referring to the drawings, A represents the outer receptacle, and B the inner receptacle. The outer receptacle A has the outer wall a and theinner wall a,separated from the outer wall t0 form a chamber a2, and which 5o is connected to the outer wall by the base or bottom d3. The inner wall surrounds an unrestricted chamber C having no bottom or topin fact, extending entirely through the receptacle A, the said receptacle beingin the nature of a cylindrical vessel without a bottom or top. The inner wall a' of the receptacle is not as high as the outer wall a in order that the moisture from one chamber may pass from it to the other. The receptacle 6o may also have a rest a4 for holding the vessel B. The vessel B is of a shape to fit within the chamber C and of a height not to extend much, if any, above the wall Ct', and it is adapted to contain paste and to form a means for the sale and transportation of the same independently of the outer receptacle, and therefore it has a cover b, which is removed `when the vessel is placed in the chamber C.

A cap D covers both the chamber d2 and the 7o vessel B when in place, but does not impede the supply of moisture to the space b between it and the chamber a2 and vessel B.

I prefer that the outer chamber be used for containing water and that the independent vessel hold paste. Of course it will be possible to use the outer receptacle A for holding paste and the independent vessel B for holding water; but when so used I prefer to en large the chamber CL2 and to reduce the size of 8o the vessel B. (See Fig. 4f.)

A paste pot or jar of this construction is cheap to make and affords an abundant supply of water for the brush and for evaporation and ready means for separating the water-receptacle from the paste-holder for the purpose of renewal, as well as that of cleanliness, the central vessel being removable from the outer vessel without soiling the hands by lifting it upward from the open lower end of 9o the outer vessel.

Having thus fully described my invention,

I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States-V 1. A paste pot or jar having an outer receptacle containing a chamber open at its top and a cavity extending through its bottom, with a removable vessel held in said cavity,4 the top and bottom of which are both also forming a bottomless cavity, with an inaccessible While in the outer receptacle. dependent vessel contained in said cavity 2.
